    Beautiful car. I would love to hear it better without the music. Love the sound of that OHC 6.

      I agree. The video itself was just fine but I had to almost immediately turn down the music.

    It’s so weird to see an American muscle car with a European sports car sound. Very unique. Straight sixes are so under appreciated.

    Lovely sounding six, I could hear most of it with the music, it almost has a European tone to it but I think they are more raspy in the high rpms. It's also nice to see a Firebird that hasn't been torn apart and abused by a gear head painting it jet black or fire red and slapping in a 7000 horsepower LS3 with a roll cage and no interior. That always takes the fun away from classic cars, the owners might as well buy an airplane instead because I'd be more impressed.
    14.6 @ 94mph on the quarter isn't too bad with the modifications the car is shown with, it's really all the performance that's needed. The average everyday modern V6 gets about that give or take with a factory throttle body tune and an automagic 6-speed and some that are not so average are things with twin turbos, such as the 3.5L Ford Taurus Ecoboost. If I remember right the factory quarter time was about 13.3 seconds @ 101 mph, one of the fastest police sedans next to the 6.2L Caprice. I hope you've kept the inline 6 over the years, I think it's more interesting to see a modified I6 or something similar like that at a car show than the recycled V8 monsters.

    Drop the music. When I was a kid, my cousin had one, dark green with four speed. I would like one in my collection

    That ohc 6 sounds kind of like a Jag double OHC 6. My brother bought a new 66 GTO off the show room floor. Next to it was a Tempest with the OHC 6. At the time I was 15...I thought the 6 to be a bit odd at the time.....would like to have one now.

    • @danielcamacho1913
      @danielcamacho1913 2 года назад +1

      John DeLorean was definitely paying attention to Jaguar when he talked Pontiac into building this engine. There was a 4-year period where *every* inline-6 Pontiac had an OHC head, and the "Sprint 6" was the performance option that ended up being rare.
      I still don't understand why they went back to putting pushrod motors in their 6-cylinder cars.

    Friend of mine has a 68 Sprint convertible, 4 speed that she bought in 1969, in process of bringing it back again. it was that verdugo green or whatever that color was called. somewhere along the line she had it repainted an ugly blue. Said she was going back to the original color.

  • @kevinpolito7727

    WHY oh why did you spoil the sound of the motor by putting some stupid generic music over it?!

    I bought a 67 sprint new (showing my age) and while it was great fun to beat the 327/300 chevys the motor would not stay together. The 6500 rpm redline and 10.5 compression was too much for it. I traded it for a new vw after a year and man I wish I had it back today. I lived in rural Nebraska and never saw another sprint.

    • @R0yL33
      @R0yL33 3 года назад

      I didn't think the motors made power to 6500. What in the engine failed?

    • @stephenandloriyoung5716
      @stephenandloriyoung5716 3 года назад +1

      The heading refers to a 292 crank, which I took to mean the Chevy big 6 292. I once had my 292 crank in the machine shop for polishing, and standing beside some V8 cranks, it sure made them look small.

      Had a 250 Sprint with a 4 barrel carburetor ( stock) when I was in high school . 1968 tempest , this car alone started a life long love for GM products . How about this ? A 1951 chevy thriftmaster truck with a ohc pontiac 6 hooked to a 5 speed trans . I have the truck already , looking for the engine .
